Features & Benefits
- Superior Adhesion Properties - Figure 1 compares ACRYLITE® digital print's optimal ink adhesion to that of standard acrylic after being cross hatched. The results show the superior adhesion properties of our digital print. This provides additional durability in handling, shipping, and installation.
- Get Rid of Adhesion Promoters - With this material, there's no longer a need to apply the promoter before the application of ink. Save time and money by printing directly onto the sheet.
- Tested by the Experts - ACRYLITE® digital print has been developed and tested with leading digital UV flatbed printers to ensure a perfect print every time.
- Superior Clarity - Being a crystal clear sheet, it maximizes visual impact.
- All the Same Benefits of ACRYLITE® Premium Acrylic - This material features all of the same benefits our premium sheet has to offer; strength, durability, and lightweight qualities.
- Water-Clear Edge Color - The edges of this sheet are water-clear for beautiful exposed edges when polished. See Figure 2 to compare the edge color of ACRYLITE® digital print with ACRYLITE® premium and a domestic competitive product.
- Unique Masking Configuration - This material features low-static maskings to prevent interference with the digital printing operation. White masking is on the printing side and clear masking is on the non-printing side, which for second-surface prints, allows the user to inspect their result while the clear masking is still on.
